This isn’t so much of a design crit but more of a general observation. It seems like it doesn’t matter if he’s saving the world or trying to destroy it, on a majority of his posters, Nic Cage looks like he wants to rip someone’s face off…
Exhibit A – Bangkok Dangerous
This first one is classic straight on pissed off Nic. Also seen in such films as 8mm, Ghost Rider (see Exhibit B) & Face Off although, the last one was more of a blank stare
Exhibit B – Ghost Rider
I guess I’d pissed off too if half my face was constantly bursting into flames and burning off
Exhibit C – Next
Two women on the brain and the world potentially ending!? That’ll drive anyone crazy
Exhitbit D – The Wicker Man
Run Nic! Burning man is after you…the hippies can’t be too far behind!
Exhibit E – Windtalkers
It’ll be ok Nic, I’m sorry the war is ruining your zen time
Exhitbit F – National Treasure: Book of Secrets
Ya…saving the world is kinda like holding the door at an office building. You do it once and you’re stuck doing it forever.
Exhibit G – World Trade Center
Not touching this one on the fear that I may be shunned by the interwebs
Exhibit H – Lord of War
You did it to yourself Nic, apocalypses don’t happen on their own
Feel free to add to the list of pissed of Nic Cage posters; I’m sure there are many more that I’ve missed.
Wicker man is hilarious. Great post
It’s all about the porno stache…
